"Oglethorpe, the founder of Georgia, was a true apostle of philanthropy and of equality of opportunity, for all. His tlal to look after their physical as their mental training. We can not af ford to let children grow up Ignorant; and If they are sent to school they can not, while young, also work hard outside without detriment, physical, mental and moral. “The nation's most valuable asset Is the children; for the children are the nation of the future. All people alive set purpose was to found,a state tho gates of wh which should be open to the oppreeasd of ovary land and creed, and closed to every form of political, reltg loua, or Industrial bondage or persecu tion. “Hie colony welcomed alike those who fled from political or social tyranny, and those, whether Christian or Jew, who sought liberty for conscience's sake. It waa a high and honorable be ginning, and I am proud, Indeed, of my Georgian anceetry, and of the fact that my grandfather's grandfather, Archi bald Bulloch, was the first governor, or as the title then wont, president of the new state, when the continental con gress, of which he waa also a member, declared that the thirteen elates had become a now and Independent nation. <20000000000000000004000000 4 4 4 GEORGIA’8 GREAT GROWTH. O O00O4404444440000444404444 “Since then Georgia has grown at a rate even more astounding than tho rate of growth of tl-fc nation as a whole; her sons have stood high In every field of activity. Intellectual or phyelcal, and rapid though her progreei has been In the poet, It bids fair to be oven greater In the wonderful new century which has now fairly opened. ‘ Perhaps the very fact that I am half Southern and half Northern In blood, and that for many years I was bro< . ugh- into peculiarly close association with the life of physical welfare of the children In all parts of our land. 40444000000004404444444444 4 SAFEGUARD CHILDREN. O 4 4 44444444400444000044444040 "There Is Increasing need that Ihe welfare of the children should be ef fectively safeguarded by governmental action; with the proviso, however, that this action shall be taken with knowl edge and In a spirit of robust common ■onse; for phllanthrophy, whether gov ernmental or Individual, la a cures and not a blessing when marked by a spirit of foolish sentimentality and Igno rance. "The only permanently beneficial way In which to help anyone Is to help hint sound economic reason for distinction between accidents caused by negligence and those which are unavoidable, and the law should be such that the pay ment of those accidents will become automatic Instead of being a matter for a law suit. Workmen should recelre I certain definite and limited compenes tlon for all accidents In Industry, Irre spectlvo of negligence. "When the employer, the agent of the public, on hi* own responsibility and for hla own profit. In the business of serving the public, starts In motion agencies which create risks for others, he should take all tho ordinary and ex traordln&ry risks Involved; and though the burden will at the moment be his, It will ultimately be assumed, as Bought to be, by the general public. "Employers would thereby gain .desirable certainty of obligation and to help himself; If either private char- ‘ action, Ity, or governmental action, or any form of social expression, destroys the Individual’s power of self-help, the rrovest possible wrong Is really done o the Individual. "We need laws for the control of vast corporations, such as wore not needed when the Individual fortunes were far smaller than at present, and when these fortunes were not combined for busl- lu ueo. “In the same way we need to change our attitude toward labor problems from what that attitude was In the days when the greet bulk of our people lived In the country with no more _ the great West, makes It natural for me to feel with Intensity the strong sense of kinship with every por tion of our great common country, which should Be the birthright of every true American. Since I have been president I have visited every atate and territory within the borders of the Union, save such as ran only be reached by sea. I have traveled from the Atlantic to the Pa cific, from Ihe Great Lakes to tho Gulf. I have spoken at country fairs, to col leges, to commercial and business or ganizations, to associations of profes sional men, to labor organisations, to men of every creed and parentage. The thing that has struck me most has been the essential oneness, the essential uni In the fundamentals I have found American citizens to be Just about the same everywhere. In whatever locality of the country we live, whatever our lorluno or occupation In life, there ex ists Just about the same essential good qualities and much the same shortcom ings In uny gathering of our cltlxone. 04000000004000040000440400 DON’T TOLERATE WRONG. 4 04040000440000000000000400 t course, each community haa Its especial- temptations Its especial short comings; nnd If It Is wise each com munlty will try to cure Itself rather than to cause heartburnings by railing at the ahortcomlnga of a sister com munity. •Wo ought not to tolerate wrong. . n sign of weakness to do so, and In Its ultimate effects weakness Is often quite ns bud as wickedness. But In putting a stop to tho wrong wc should, so far as possible, avoid getting Into on attitude of vindictive hatred toward the wrongdoer. He may be morally to blame, and It may be necessary to pun ish him; but on tho other hand the wrong Its has committed may simply be duo to the existing condition of things, to conditions under which he has boon brought up; and In such < case, while we must apply the rente dy. and see that there le no further chance of harm to the community, It Is neither Just nor far-sighted to exact revenge for what has been done. ‘In short, friends, let us realise that ... very truth we are knit together In tics of brotherhood, nnd that while It proper and necessary that we should ■1st upon our rights, we should yet be patient and considerate In bearing Ith one another, end In trying, so far i In us lies, each to look at the prob lems that face us rrom his brother's standpoint na well as from hie own. 44000444440444004404444000 PROORE8S OF SOUTH.

To the ordinary wage, worker's family such a calamity meani grim hardship. he workman and the workman's fam lly would be relieved from a crushing load. "The national government should be model employer. It should demand the highest quality of service from Its em ployed and should care for them prop erly In return. "Congress should adopt legislation providing llmltsd but definite compen sation for accidents to all workmen within the scope of the Federal power. Including employees in navy, yards and arsenals. Simitar legislation should follow throughout the states.

"Legislation should be had, alike from the nation and from the states, not only to guard against the need- but to relieve the financial suffering due to them. "Last winter congress passed safety-appliance law which marked a long stride In the right direction. But there should be additional legislation to secure pecuniary compensation to workmen suffering from accidents, and when they are killed, to their families. "The present practice Is based on the view announced nearly seventy yenrs ago that ‘principles of Justice and good sense demand that a workman shall take upon himself all the ordi nary risks of his occupation.’ "In my view, principles of Justice and sense demand the very reverse of this view, which experience has proved to be uneound and productive of wide spread suffering. 04400004000000044400000000 0 COMPENSATE WORKMEN. 4 04444444000004444444044404 >s a matter of fact there Is no Aa a corollary to the above let me point out the extreme unwisdom of the railway companies In fighting the con stltutlonallty of the national employ ere' liability law. No law la more am phatlcally needed,-and It muat be kept bn the atatute hooka In drastic and thoroughgoing form. "The railroads are prompt to demand tho Interference end to claim the pro tection of the Federal courts In times of riot and disorder; and In turn the Federal government should see to It that they are not permitted successful ly to plead that they are under the Federal law when thereby their own rights can be protected, but outside of It, when It le Invoked ugalnst them in bohnlf of the rights of others, "If It Is proper for the Federal courts to Issue Injunctions In behalf of rail roads, It Is proper that railroads should bo held to a strlot liability for accidents occurring to their employees. "There should be the plainest and moat unequivocal additional statement, by enactment of congress, to the ef fect that railroad employees are en titled to receive damages for any acci dent that comes to them as on Incident of the performance-of their duties, and the law should be such that It will be Impossible for the railroads successfully to fight It without thereby forfeiting ell right to the protection of the Fed eral government under any circum stances. In the same way there should be rigid Federal legislation to minim ise all railway accidents. 04444444044444444444440004 4 0 4 OUR GREAT NAVY. 00004440040000400044004400 "In closing, friends and fellow cltl zena of Georgia, let me say one word suggested by the recent ceremonies, In which you have Just taken part, tn connection with your gift to the noble battleship named after your state. “Our battleships and great armored cruisers, our fighting craft, are named Most ol the Digestion occurs In tho thirty leal of Intestines.

"If the officers and enlisted men do their duty—and I am thankful to say that In our navy the cases where they do not do their duty are relatively few In number—they put us all under a deep obligation to them, and we should give them all the reward and encour agement In our power.
